Ferry capsizes in Bangladesh. 3 Americans drown

News grabs us, as individuals, only to the extent that we can have empathy for the victims.

The headline read "Ferry capsizes in Bangladesh. 3 Americans drown" Buried in the last paragraph as a footnote is the information that 15,678 Bengali also perished.

Biden lost the support of the Mass Media when he treated the "reporters" stranded in Afghanistan the same way he treated the other Americans.

The Mass Media had a shit-pie shoved in their face. Biden/Harris served notice that they do not think reporters are "special" or "one of us". Nope. Reporters and other members of the Mass Media are every bit as expendable as the unwashed masses, the deplorables.

Until now, the Mass Media had no more empathy for deplorables than most Americans had for the 15,678 Bengali who drowned on that fateful day. They were a back-drop, no more than cardboard cutouts.

Now the shoe is on the other foot.

Suckers. They nibbled on your ear and said they REALLY loved you. You believed them. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...or journalist.

  2. What surprises me most about that is the number of people on one ferry.

  3. Let an old boomer try to recall a quote, um, yeah, Russell Means of the American Indian Movement, perhaps sometime back in the early 1990's, Describing the saddest thing of all in his eyes:

    (it's something like this)
    The saddest thing for me is that the American people have failed to see what, over history, has happened to indigenous and other races and to know that we are all Indians now, to the ruling class.

    To the Bideys, err, uh bidens of the world we all Bangladeshis now.

    Pray for those lost souls.
